Preliminary list:
Secret Lover
Offshoot
Runaway Red
Illicit
Good Times
Evil Eye Quad
Lady Grey Quad
Outre
Carbonized
Avenue
Stunner
Seaside
226
Shadesticks depend on if I actually like the product or not because I've never used them.

With the other two brushes, are they new to be made permanent? I know they are definitely new but not sure if the 'permanent' next to it is a typ-o or not.

I'm going to get the 226 brush, Carbonized and Creamy Bisque from this collection.
Maybe one of the quads.

Happy wallet :)

My list is still very long. I need swatches to reduce it (I'm pretty sure it cannot grow anymore).
Secret Lover l/s
Oh, oh, oh l/s
Offshoot l/s
Spite l/g
Social light l/g
The wee coquette l/g
Good times l/g
Evil eyeshadow quad
Lady grey eyeshadow quad
Mythical e/s (maybe)
Carbonized e/s
Stunner b/s (maybe)
226 brush

Hoping to cut down the lipglasses to about 2 and maybe take away the blush and 1 e/s (i cant resist veluxe pearls though!) Hopefully, we will see some swatches next week since this is slated to be released in Aug.

Everything you need to know about eyeshadow bases - here is my specktra video on the shadesticks :)

Lou, as you like greens, you should check out the (Pro) paint sticks. They are like grease paints, but better. You will

Landscape Green. Mind you, they are not tested on the eye, but I never had a problem with them. It's the best e/s base ever - it will stay on forever and you need heavy-duty remover.

Love seeing what others prelim lists are.

Mine is...
-Cakeshop s/s- Frosted pewter & Street Cool s/s- Mid-tone grey violet taupe (After Lou's review on them I'm not sure yet. Hopefully they changed the formula)
-226 BRUSH- (Sounds like an awesome brush!)
-Social Light- l/g Neutral pink with pearl & Curvaceous- Light grey pink (seems like they can be simular when worn so prob only get one)
-Stunner Blush- Light coral pink (I'm in need of some coral blushes, I only own the one from WW. I used to not care for them, but they are starting to grow on me)
-One of the quads. I'm leaning more towards the Lady Grey one, but we'll see once we get some swatches Maybe one of the dark lippies. . ...
-Maybe one of the dark lippies, just not sure which one. I like Rebel so far but it might be too close to Spitfire for me.

So all in all I dont think I'll be getting too much. But once swatches get here you KNOW its a different story LOL

Lou thanks for that review! I agree about the mufe AC's, my coll of them is growing. And I just bought #22, I LOVE it! I just wish they would have a purple.

[/quote] Me personally, I am a huge fan of shadesticks, Beige-ing being my favorite. Just make sure you always properly close the cap, you need to hear two clicks. Cakeshop and all the others that came out with Sugar Sweet are even smoother than the normal ones. Cakeshop itself is a great base, just to not expect too much of a colour. It's there, but not like Delft etc. The 226 is a nice brush, not not more than that, I personally find it a bit overhyped. It really depends what you are looking for. If you need it for crease work as others are too big, then it's your brush. It's like a smaller, more pointed 224 if that makes sense.

I love my Beige-ing also - it's softer than my Sharkskin for sure. Sharkskin is a great dark base for me, but it is much dryer and it definitely tugs going on, even after warming it up a bit! :( Hopefully these ones are more like Beige-ing! Or they turn out to be horribly dry so I can skip them

I find the shadesticks from Sugarsweet are very creamy, I hope these new ones are too! But Beige-ing is a great shadestick indeed. :) Too bad they decided to discontinue them all. :/

Yes, please do if you get a chance. The colors are so intense. I had hoped that they would promote these with the chromagraphic pencils later this year, but you can always order them from the Pro store.

There is also a turquoise/light blue color you might like - correction, a color that you will LOVE - high-def cyan. They come in tubes similar to lippies, but as you use your fingers to apply them, it won't be a problem. They stain quite a bit, but that just proves how long they last on the skin. I used Pure White all-over my face and it took me forever to remove it. If you set it with powder, you could - at least in theory - go to bed with it and look exactly the same the next morning. Not that one would go with make up on to bed, but the staying power is amazing. (think theme park ;-)

oohh i have the high def cyan pigment and freaking love it so i take it that it will be the same colour as that? :) and if they last so long they'd be good for a theme park trip then you can certain count me in! hee hee! you know my weaknesses so well!
